251 Seven Silver Blades (1/2)
Yun Nantian glared at Su Yang with an angry expression on his handsome face, feeling embarrassed by his scared reaction just now. What's worst, Fang Zhelan was there to see it.
”Who the hell is this Inner Court disciple and how did he enter the center court?” Yun Nantian immediately recognized his green robes but was unfamiliar with Su Yang's face. In fact, he'd never even seen him before.
”Are you Su Yang?” Fang Zhelan asked him.
”I am.”
”Come inside, I have been expecting you.”
Su Yang nodded and approached the door.
However, just as he took two steps, Yun Nantian shouted, ”Hold it right there!”
”Junior apprentice-sister Fang, what is the meaning of this? Is this young man the reason you are busy? A mere Inner Court disciple?” he asked her with an unpleasant expression on his face.
”That is none of your business,” she coldly replied.
Yun Nanting's body slightly trembled in anger, yet he managed to remain a calm expression when speaking to her, ”Don't be like that, junior apprentice-sister. What will you gain from cultivating with someone at the Profound Spirit Realm like him? If we cultivate together, it wouldn't be a dream to achieve the Earth Spirit Realm before the Regional Tournament begin!”
Although the Profound Blossom Sect highly encourages its Inner Court disciples to participate in the Regional Tournament, even making it mandatory to become a Core disciple, the event actually accepts anyone below the age of 30, so there will be Core disciples from other Sects participating as well.
That being said, unless the Inner Court disciples defeat every opponent, they will be matched with individuals of similar cultivation base and age before they face off the Core disciples.
”Haha…” Su Yang couldn't help but laugh at Yun Nantian's futile effort. He has seen plenty of desperate men before but they always make him laugh.
”You dare laugh at me, Inner Court disciple?” Yun Nantian narrowed his eyes at Su Yang, his gaze filled with killing intent.
”What's wrong with laughing when a joke is told? Don't people normally do that?” Su Yang asked with a puzzled tone, seemingly truly confused by Yun Nantian's reaction.
”Joke? What did I say that was a joke to you?” Yun Nantian asked him with a frown.
”Everything you said sounded like a joke, kid!” Su Yang burst out laughing.
”K-Kid?! Courting death!” Yun Nantian's face flushed red, fuming at Su Yang's response.
Yun Nantian suddenly retrieved his identity jade slip and raised it before him.
”I challenge you to a death match!”
He shouted at Su Yang.
”Senior apprentice-brother Yun, I really do not have the time for any of this right now!” Fang Zhelan finally intervened, feeling slightly agitated by their childish actions.
”J-Junior apprentice-sister—”
”Disciple Su Yang, please come inside already,” Fang Zhelan quickly interrupted.
Su Yang did not say anything else and walked inside the house whilst still laughing. At this point, it was as though he was trying to purposefully piss Yun Nantian. At least that is what it seems like in Fang Zhelan's eyes.
”Junior apprentice-sister, wait—”
Bam!
Fang Zhelan closed the door on Yun Nantian's face, leaving him standing there with a dazed expression.
Fang Zhelan seemed much colder to him today than usual, and Yun Nantian blamed Su Yang for losing face in such a way before her.
